Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
In clinical laboratories, it is common to obtain serum and plasma by using a barrier tube due to its various advantages. In this study, we aimed to compare 18 biochemistry analytes in outpatient clinic and outpatient oncology patients by measuring in a Barricor tube and a serum separator tube (SST).
Methods
Venous blood was drawn into the Barricor tube and SST from volunteers consisting of outpatients and outpatient oncology patients. The biochemical parameters were measured using the AU2700 autoanalyser (Beckman Coulter Inc., CA, USA) and Beckman Coulter Access immunoanalyser (Beckman Coulter Inc., CA, USA). The biochemical analytes evaluated in the two participant groups were compared between the Barricor tube and SST.
Results
In the study, when the results in both the outpatient group and the outpatient oncology patient group, bias (%), allowable bias (%), CV (%), allowable CV (%), total error (%), total allowable error (TEa) (%) were evaluated; potassium (K) total error (%) between Barricor tube and SST exceeded TEa, however, all other parameters were within TEa.
Conclusions
Considering its various advantages and compared biochemical analytes, we think that can be switched to the Barricor tube in clinical laboratories and the reference range change can be made for K.
